I have a pair of S1 flyscreens autographed by Erik. Both are in colors of S1s that I own. I would really like to turn these into art that I can hang on the wall, but my mind is far too practical...not an artistic type.

I'm reaching out looking for ideas for how to hang/display these pieces in a way that will be appropriate for the living room wall.

Any ideas are much appreciated!

could you post pictures of it, front back and side shots
I dont have that style screen on my bikes, so Im not sure how the mounting holes are
You could probably whip up a quick and easy, small wooden mount.
Maybe.

how about a cool plate shelf?

you could have a brass nameplate of some sort made for it as well.

If it were me... I'd turn it into a bad ass clock...

I have a pretty interesting idea too...


Take a old headlight housing. Use the front bezel and glass. Make a easy aluminum back plate to mount the front of the headlight to the flyscreen as it would properly mount on the bike together.

Drill a hole in the center of the glass... install the clock piece there. Now get some sort of LED, or home appliance light to go in the back of the headlight.

Mount on wall.

How about hanging them on the wall on top of a picture of Erik... You could call it Pope Erik!

I've thought about the clock as a nice garage clock.

Also, maybe a round headlight sized picture frame with a nice photo of your bike.

Or maybe a round headlight sized mirror, perhaps a Buell logo etched in.
